Football in Queensland United
Football Queensland is the governing body of association football (soccer) and futsal in Queensland and a member of Australia’s national football governing body (Football Australia).
Football Queensland is recognised by both the State and Federal Governments and Football Australia as the governing body for soccer and futsal in Queensland, Australia.
Tracing its history back to the establishment of the Anglo-Queensland Football Association in 1884, Football Queensland now has more than 300,000+ participants and 308 clubs across the state.
Football Queensland is the sole governing body for football in Queensland with nine regional offices throughout the state:
- Football Queensland Central
- Football Queensland Darling Downs
- Football Queensland Far North & Gulf
- Football Queensland Metro (North & South)
- Football Queensland Northern
- Football Queensland South Coast
- Football Queensland Sunshine Coast
- Football Queensland Whitsunday Coast
- Football Queensland Wide Bay
These regional offices were established in 2021 as part of the Future of Football 2020+ Reforms to better reflect the geography and strategic direction of the regions throughout Queensland. During the reform journey, the local football community was invited to engage in a six-month state-wide consultation process based on improving four key areas of the game: Governance, Administration, Competitions and Affordability.
Each regional office has a local administrator and committee members which are elected by clubs to meet quarterly to discuss functional and geographical matters.
Football Queensland is proud to unveil our 2024 Annual Report, which captures a year defined by purposeful action and long-term vision ⚽
Amid another year of strong participation growth, FQ focused on what mattered most to the football community: keeping the game accessible, strengthening football`s relationship with all levels of government and expanding engagement opportunities across all ages, formats, and regions.
